Electricity plays a huge part when progressing in The Front. However, the electrical system in the game is known to be quite puzzling. That’s why in this guide, I’ll show you everything you’ll need to know about electricity in the game, and trust me, it’s pretty much straightforward once you get the hang of it. Without further ado, let’s jump right into it!
How Does Electricity Work
First off, let’s talk about the basic premise: there are devices that generate power and devices that consume it. That’s the core concept.
Now, further in the guide, I’ll explain more advanced tools and devices that you’ll encounter in the game.
Basic Setup
I’ll start with a simple setup. You’ll first encounter a generator. These machines require a fuel source like diesel or gas to operate.
Once fueled, use a connector like a cable to connect the generator’s output to the input of another device, like a light, for example.
This setup allows power to flow from the generator to the light, turning it on. You can continue chaining devices with each other this way.
Larger Setup
For larger setups, you may want to consider more advanced components like couplers, splitters, and circuit breakers.
A circuit breaker acts as an on/off switch, while a coupler combines multiple device outputs into one, streamlining the distribution of power.
Now, for instance, you can set up a complex defense system using a generator connected to various devices, which are linked using couplers. This way, you ensure each component receives power evenly.
To explain circuit breakers or the switch better. They are generally useful for preserving power. If you only want a device to run when necessary, the switch allows you to control it efficiently.
By connecting the output from a device to a switch’s input, you can turn the device on or off as needed.
Still a bit confused? Don’t worry, once you grasp the concepts of inputs and outputs, handling electrical systems becomes much simpler.
